<blockquote>'It was in 1982 I think, early in his radio story-telling career. He had been working at NPR in DC, but was in LA on his birthday that year. I lived in DC. At dawn on the morning of his birthday, my best friend (who was dating a friend of Joe's) and I plastered the sidewalk and walls in front of the NPR HQ (on M or L St at that time) with dozens of flyers wishing him Happy Birthday. We signed them with code names that only he would know. He called me that night - late, as usual - and was amazed that my friend and I had done this. He said that people from NPR were calling him to tell him about the flyers. He told me it raised his profile with NPR. God, 30 years ago!! I can't believe it. And he still has standing as one of the most influential people in my life.' | |||

and about Amy, whom Joe also called in [[Let Me Not Dream]]: | |||
<blockquote> | |||
'Joe and I were in a small shop in Adams Morgan in DC one day and the | |||
proprietor recognized him as the subject of a song that one of Joe's | |||
buddies had written and sung on NPR. It was about "a forensic | |||
pathologist in love with a radio man," as the proprietor described | |||
it. (This would have been in the very early 80s.)' | |||
